A clean, minimal Markdown editor for iPhone and iPad.

Downward is a minimal Markdown editor for iPhone and
iPad, built for focused writing, simple file browsing
and a cleaner way to work with Markdown.
Browse and edit Markdown files stored locally on your device or in iCloud, without locking your writing into a complicated workspace. Downward keeps your files accessible while giving you a calm, customisable editor for notes, drafts, documentation, journals, writing projects and everyday text editing.
The editor is designed to feel simple and quiet. You can work with Markdown syntax visible, or hide formatting characters for a cleaner, more minimal writing experience.
